Volume 1 Chapter 12 It's Sounds The Best, But...
As the enchanting woman descended to the first floor, she came up to my side and spoke to the receptionist.
"Could you please take care of the room? My guest is sleeping in the room, so please include them as well."
"Yes. Thank you very much for your continued patronage."
"As usual, add the room charge to the person on the second floor who is still snoring. Please let me know if there's anything."
"Understood."
She bowed respectfully to the receptionist and bid farewell before leaving. Just before that, she turned her gaze towards me and gave me a gentle smile.
...As I stood there, dumbfounded, watching her receding figure, the receptionist called out to me, "Customer?" and I snapped back to reality. It seems like my mind had wandered off for a moment.
"Um, can I ask you something?"
"──Wh-what is it?"
I leaned forward and raised my voice, causing the receptionist to flinch slightly, but she nodded.
"That person who just left! Is that person also an employee here?!"
"No. That person just favors this store when accompanying male customers, and is separate from the pr**titutes who work here."
So, that person must be an independent one.
But, that doesn't really matter anymore.
"Oh, customer. If you were planning on requesting that person as your companion, it's better to stop──"
Without hearing the rest of the receptionist's words, I suddenly found myself running out of the brothel.
'H-hey, partner! What's wrong!?'
Ignoring Gram's shout, I desperately ran.
Not much time has passed. If I hurry, I should be able to catch up.
And then── I caught sight of the figure I was looking for.
"Hey, beautiful lady over there!"
Whether my voice reached her or not, 'she' stopped walking. When she turned around, she put her hand to her mouth and said, "Oh my."
I ran towards her side and fell to my knees, gasping for breath. Even though the distance wasn't long, I had been running with all my might, so my breathing was ragged.
"Um, you're the boy who was at the reception of the inn... right?"
"Yes... that's correct."
"From the way you look, it seems like you have something to tell me... what is it?"
I placed my hand on my chest to steady my breathing and regained some composure before looking up.
Up close, she was truly a stunning beauty. If that 'young lady' was a lovely beauty, then this mature lady was an enchanting beauty. She seemed like the kind of woman who existed to captivate men.
But I made up my mind.
I straightened my posture and spoke clearly.
"Lady, please be my first partner!"
At first, she just stood there with her mouth open in surprise.
'Partner, when your excitement reaches its peak, your composure seems to become incredibly steady in return, huh...'
Gram murmured, passing from my left ear to my right.
The lady snapped out of her daze and smiled.
"...So, does that mean you want to buy me as a pr**titute?"
"Yes! If I'm going to be a man, I want a beautiful lady like you!"
"Hehehe, thank you for the compliment."
The beautiful lady laughed cheerfully.
"Lately, I've been dealing with men who are overly pretentious, so it's refreshing to meet someone as honest as you. It might be interesting to be embraced by someone like that."
Oh, could this be a good sign?
Although it may seem too forward for someone I just met, maybe it could work?
"But, I also take pride in my work as a pr**titute in my own way. I can't just let anyone have me for free."
"...Well, of course...that's true, right?"
With a faint hope, the lady's face became a little serious and she said firmly. My head, which had been clouded by fever, was cooled down a little, and I timidly nodded.
"Listen up, okay... I'm expensive, you know?"
"Huh, like, how much are we talking about?"
──The amount that the lady mentioned was way beyond my budget. Even if I put all my living expenses into it, it still wouldn't be enough. I looked at the lady's face, thinking she must be ripping me off, but what I got back was a serious look. It seems like she's, like, totally serious.
"Th-this is daft..." (T/N: daft = absurd)
'Hey, you're so shocked that you're speaking some mysterious dialect, dude.'
Seeing me collapse right there on the spot due to the ridiculously high price, Gram calmly interjected.
'But, this amount is, like, insane. So basically, this hot chick is, like, the top-tier among pr**titutes. Partner, it seems like you weren't mistaken in your judgment. Unfortunately, it's way out of your league though!'
Gram found my collapse amusing, I guess, because there was laughter in his voice. Should I just throw it into a furnace or something?
"I'm sorry. As I just said, it wouldn't be right to have a freebie after all the money other client has spent on me."
She said with a wry smile and turned her back to me.
"I don't dislike honest kids like you, but..."
Her footsteps grew distant. I couldn't stop her with my head hanging down. Then, as I lowered my head, a ring hanging from a string around my neck fell.
Looking at the swaying ring, I suddenly thought.
──Right, this time it's not out of reach.
"Let's do it!"
I shouted at the lady who was about to leave as I stood up energetically.
"Lady! I have a question!"
"What is it?"
I said to her as she turned around.
"If I have the money ready, can I buy you?"
"...Yes. If you can provide the full amount I offered earlier, I would gladly let you buy me."
"Alright! Don't forget those words!"
In the previous one, there was a big difference in status that stood in my way. As just a simple villager, it was a problem I couldn't do anything about.
But this time, the problem was about money. I definitely didn't have the funds to buy her right now. But if I didn't have money, I just needed to earn it, right?
Well then, I'll just have to earn it!
"Hehe, I like your less formal tone right now, it's much better, don't you think?"
"I'll definitely make sure to buy you. Keep that in mind."
"Yes, I'll be waiting."
At that moment, I had forgotten to ask something.
"Tell me your name. If we meet again, it'll be difficult to find you without knowing your name."
"Well, it's common courtesy to introduce yourself first."
"Oops, my bad."
Today, my emotions have been fluctuating between being passionate and calm.
After clearing my throat, I introduced myself.
"I'm Yukina. Nice to meet you."
"Ah, Yukina-kun, right?"
The lady adjusted her posture slightly and looked straight at me.
"My name is Kyunei. I am eagerly awaiting the day when you will purchase me."
──And so, I began my journey to acquire Kyunei, the finest pro**itute.
